I’m proud to say I can and have. What’s the point of holding on to beliefs that are demonstrably false?

What would be the difference? Those pitches are thrown at lower velocities, and 9 meters away would have little break. Would be easier for him, I would think.

Iraq was absolutely a bigger blunder than Vietnam. No question.

I’m going to disagree with you here on two counts - one, those machines are never that precise, they do not always deliver the ball in the exact same location.
